Love is friendship that has caught fire . . .

The naked truth is always better than the best-dressed lie.

In the end, it's not what you do for your children but what you've taught them to do for themselves.

If you want your children to listen, try talking softly - to someone else.

Opportunities are usually disguised as hard work, so most people don't recognize them.

At age 20, we worry about what others think of us. At age 40, we don't care what they think of us. At age 60, we discover they haven't been thinking of us at all.

Keep in mind that the true measure of an individual is how he treats a person who can do him absolutely no good.

Some people believe holding on and hanging in there are signs of great strength. However, there are times when it takes much more strength to know when to let go and then do it.

Wake up and smell the coffee.

Anyone who believes the competitive spirit in America is dead has never been in a supermarket when the cashier opens another check-out line.

You shouldn't be worried when people call, communicate, yell, argue, or cry for you. You should be worried when everyone is silent.

Lead us in a few words of silent prayer.

Meaning is not in things but in between them.

Out of that aloneness - the experience of God. There is no other way; there has never been any and there is never going to be.

At MTV, it's very nice sometimes to be able to be very specific. Specificity really makes a news story interesting because you can color it in that personality.

You may not be able to leave your children a great inheritance, but day by day you may be weaving coats for them which they will wear through all eternity.
